I won't explain these three masterpieces called: Ulug Beg Mmadrasa Sherdor Madrasa Tilla Qori Medrasa One by one. But this square is home to one of the mightiest monument's in the world. Like in giza where famous pyramids are, you feel yourself tiny pice of the universe. All these monument's are must visit attraction and some of the most famous ones in the world. There are visual light shows at nights when the sun sets do not miss it.
